ALOHA IS DEAD BRAZILIAN STORM
After Hawaii’s favorite son dies under suspicious circumstances in a contest against his Brazilian rival for the World Surfing Championship, Koa Banks and Detective Kate Winslow are again called in to solve the mystery.

COMING SOON!
Don’t miss Koa and Kate’s next island adventure.
When a serial killer hunts the idyllic beaches of Oahu’s North Shore, it’s up to Koa Banks, a down-on-his-luck big wave surfer and lifeguard, and Kate Winslow, a rookie detective fresh off the plane from Chicago, to stop the carnage.
To do it, they’ll have to battle the “North Shore Mafia,” break a lot of laws and survive the most dangerous surf in decades. With the season’s biggest surf contest creating a target-rich environment and Koa’s own family in the crosshairs, island time is officially over. The clock is ticking in Paradise.
IF HE WIPES OUT, PEOPLE DIE.
Koa Banks used to be a respected pro surfer. He used to be an elite Hawaiian lifeguard and a faithful husband. Koa used to be a lot of things. Now he’s just trying to hold on to his ten-year-old daughter and get back in the lifeguard tower.
But when a serial killer targets some of the community’s most prominent locals, police detective Kate Winslow, fresh off the plane from Chicago with a tattered career in tow, recruits Koa to help her catch the murderer. Seeing it as the only way to win back his career and protect his family, Koa risks everything by defying the vigilante code of North Shore Justice to help Kate.
Soon, however, Kate’s big city style puts the pair in treacherous waters. And with the year’s largest surf contest attracting thousands of potential victims, along with his own daughter landing in the crosshairs, Koa must conquer his personal demons and survive the biggest waves to hit Hawaiian shores in decades to stop the killer. Island time is officially dead — the clock is ticking fast in paradise.
